Laver Cup: activist enters the field and sets himself on fire in the middle of the game

The second match of the Laver Cup, in which the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas beat the Argentine Diego Schwartzman, was briefly interrupted after a militant burst onto the pitch and set his arm on fire as a protest against private jets.

Tsitsipas had just won the first set 6-2 and the players were on their team benches when a young man, wearing a t-shirt that read ‘End Private Jets in the UK’, approached the net.

He sat in the middle of the court and lit a flammable substance on his arm, but the flames were quickly put out and the young man was evacuated by tournament security.

The referees then verified that the field, where the fire was also set, was in good condition.

The match was able to continue and Tsitsipas won the second set 6-2 to give Europe a 2-0 lead over the rest of the world team. This match marked the end of the afternoon session at the O2 Arena in London.
